EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - New York Giants general manager Dave Gettleman justified being retained for a third year despite head coach Pat Shumur being fired by pointing to the "progress" the team has made on and off the field that has set the foundation for the future.
His list of reasons include:
Finding a franchise quarterback. "I really believe we've done that," Gettleman said after leading the selection of Daniel Jones No. 6 overall in the draft earlier this year.
Redoing the team's scouting system, both college and pro personnel.
